Hello, I am setting up ProFTPd daemon (from EPEL repository) under CentOS 5.2 and I need encrypted connection. Daemon is configured perfectly, there is no problem - if iptables is off connection is smoothly established, but when iptables is on, connection in FTP client ends on command LIST without response. Last command with response (positive) is PASV. Thank you for your replies Martin ??astn?

Hello, as I have read manual, if I use in file authorized_keys option command="" with some command, no other commands will be permitted. I have tried it, created authorized_keys2 for root and added there command="rdiff-backup --server" and after that tried to login. Thit command was executed, but I was normally able to supply other comand as root. Can you tell me why? Thank

Hello, I had problems with speed of Samba, so I was looking for some solution and I had discovered "use sendfile" configuration option. I was checking all Samba release notes and I had discovered, that from some version (older than is in CentOS repo) this option was turned on as default. So my question is, why in CentOS 5.3 is that option in default set to off? Thank you for responses

I'm still pretty new to running a mail server, but one thing I've come to appreciate over the years is a good backup strategy. Since I have always run my own servers for practice and for personal use I don't have access to Enterprise backup solutions. Because of that I usually just fall back to scripts and tarballs and offload the content on a regular basis. Right now I'm

Hi We have an issue with one of our clients , they have a mail server with the /var/spool/imap partition as 150 GB . They need to take differential backup on to /backup partition ( a different HDD of total 250 GB space ) . We have tried dar , rsync, rdiff and impasync . But its is not sufficing the need as to take a lot of time and consumes a lot of I/O . Is there any back up solution that

So I thought I'd get a head start for next week - I have a low-power Linux box that has a few samba shares mounted, and limited hard disk space. This box is connected to a tape library via SCSI card. I want to find the best way to create a full, then incremental backup of the samba mounts, directly to tape. Some of the samba mounts are appliances that cannot run any special

Hi, i am new to rsync and i want to use rsync to emulate rdiff behaviour (because i can't install rdiff on the system). What i would like rsync to do is to generate a diff file (like with rsync --write-batch) but WITHOUT changing the destination file. This would allow me to store daily differential updates on the target (i think hardlinking would not help me much as the file is changing every

Hi all, I have one maybe stupid question - is there in CentOS 5 packages of Compiz Fusion? I am deciding between Fedora and CentOS to install it to my netbook and this is one of most important features that I want.

Hi all, sometimes I?m checking status of my server with phpSysInfo, always is all right, but at May 8 I was experienced a "big deviation". My machine was online for 12 days, but net statistics are reseted. I was checked /proc/net/dev and there are reseted net statistics too. How is this possible? Just before I was experienced this problem I was updating two packages with yum

I have an opensolaris server running with a raidz zfs pool with almost 1TB of storage. This is intended to be a central fileserver via samba and ftp for all sorts of purposes. I also want to use it to backup my XP laptop. I am having trouble finding out how I can setup solaris to allow my XP machine to backup on a regular schedule, do I look for programs for XP or does solaris have some built in

Can anyone recommend a commercial off site remote backup service with a client (preferably FOSS) for CentOS 5, preferably that allows encryption of the data being backed up? Small scale, I'm primarily looking to just back up my mail folder on my server. I've been backing it up to local hd via rsync but that drive just died, I'd prefer to have it backed up to somewhere more stable

Hi all, I've built a new backup server for our linux-clients. Is Amanda the way to go for a backup-solution? It seems to be pretty powerful, if a bit finickety to set up initially. The way we currently do backups is to use rsync from the clients to two folders on an older server that rolls over every other week. This worked fine for a while, but the rsync is cumulative and the users

Hello, I have installed new network card under CentOS 5.3, but there are some problems. I want delete existing ifcfg-eth0 and automatically make new on as it is during OS installation process. Is it possible? Thank you

Hi, I have Sendmail configured to use STARTTLS for authentication. On all internet connections and computers (that I have tested) works connection over encrypted SMTP flawlessly. Today I was setting up mail client on PC of my customer and standardily checked boxes, that I want to use SSL for POP3 and SMTP. Next I wanted to check configuration (by sending email from this mailbox to this mailbox)

Hey there, what type of backup solution do you use on C7? Thanks in advance

Hello, I am going to buy new laptop with two drives, one SSD and one HDD and I want to place swap partition on HDD which will be most time unused and therefore spinned down. Problem is, that I don't know, if or how often is kernel touching swap space even if there is lot of free memory and thus spinning HDD up. Thank you in advance

We have about 5 servers spread out throughout the country: 2 Centos 4.4, 1 Red Hat and 2 windows machines- looking for some good ideas for a back-up solution. Our servers hold a lot of data, but only a small portion of it is crucial on any given day. That crucial portion is always changing (for example, this week the crucial files all relate to November- current and previous projects, and the next

Good morning list, I've a question about backup performed with bacula. I manage a DELL server (dedicated on provider) with C7. I use bacula as backup system with volumes on disk. System performs mon-sat incremental backups and Sun full backup at 03.00 AM. I've another pool (named update) where I performs backup before each software update. Storage is on and external disk 2.5' of
